Continue Drive On Monopolies
Washington, Jan. 1. (UP) — Leon Henderson, economist for the Works Progress Adminis¬ tration, tonight blamed business monopolies for sowing the seeds of present economic recession through stimulating price rises.
In a radio address, Hender¬ son continued the administra¬ tion's verbal attack on mono¬ polistic tendencies which has so far been highlighted by caustic speeches of Assistant Attorney (teneral Robert H. Jackson and Secretary of the Interior Harold L.  Ickes.
"The seeds of our present crisis were sown in that price rise,"   Henderson   said.
"Were monopolies responsible for this rise which crippled workable relationships in the American economy by reducing the general public's capacity to consumer?
"My answer is emphatically yes. I believe the unbalance In prices was touched off by the monopolistic  prices."

Washington, Jan. 1. (UP)—Jolin D. Biggers, director of the volun¬ tary unemployment census, re¬ ported to President Roosevelt to¬ night that between 7,822,912 and 10,870,000 persons were out of work on November 20.

There was a gap of more than ,'?,000,000 between the two totals re¬ ported by Biggers. The 7,82:\912 was the number of persons who re¬ ported on census cards thai th'y were out of work and wanted to work. Persons on WPA and other relief jobs were counted as unem¬ ployed. Women numbered l,99fi,<i99, or about one-fourth of the total. Recherk Raises Total
Door-to-door canvasses in selected areas indicated the number of un¬ employed was actually higher than the number who returned cards. Applying the results of thir sampling to the entire country, the census experts made an adjusted estimate of  10,870,000.
Biggers advised the President that he believed the true figure lies  between  those  two  totals.
